i'm having trouble forming a practice session that focusses on all techniques tha ti have learned so far. Since i'm doing combat hapkido, i find it hard to do without a partner, an dhave made some dummies to compensate, but i'm still having trouble comming up witha program for myself, any thoughts?

 

oh and i will talk to my instructor about this on Saturday.

Unfortunately, there's not a lot you can do. We use meditations to visualize them, and make the moves in our mind to be lightning fast. However, without a real joint to lock, or pressure point to activate, you'll never be sure to have it right.

 

You can always look into getting together with some classmates outside of the dojang. Just be extremely careful.

the thing is, my teacher holds classes for tkd only, he teaches me combat hapkido, but he doesn't have his own combat hapkido school. I take private lessons. bummer huh? no other school mates

 

I'll talk to him about it though, maybe there's somone he knows at his tkd school that does alot of self defense stuff as well. Or i could just beat the piss outta my parents

That's not a nice thing to say about your parents.

there is no substitute for training with others..especially when training for combat..if private lessons mean you dont take class with others then i would change and attend the regular class with other students

he doesn't hold regular classes for combat hapkido, read my above post. His students never got into it but i love it so he teaches me privately.

well i dont know what to tell you..you cant train for combat by shadow boxing

you must be a great instructor.....(end sarcasm)

very clever boy..(ask one of the dummies for advice see what they may be able to tell you)....... reality check..what im trying to tell you is point blank you cannot train for fighting sparring ..combat without working with different individuals..sizes ..skill levels..okay?

jesus, i was just asking a question and you came off to me as a total jerk, you having a bad day or something? chill out. i get what your saying.
